WEEKLY SENTINEL

MARCH so, I set lmrrut ippolnlnifiil. Caasirs M . Clat has ben nominated a Min inter to Sptia, and Thomas Cobwis Minist to Mexico. The latter position, n view of the condition of affairs in Um sscexlin? States, ;i ml the policy thy win adopt of territorial expansion southward, is regarded as the most important mission under the Government. Both of these gentlemen are coaserratives ami pronounced cowards b Philosopher Gb.xzi.et. National Com ration of the State. A joint resolution passed the Legislature re coin mending Congress to call a Convention of the States to consider the political troubles of the country and mike such amendments to the Con stitation as the public exigencies demand. There were some qualifications in the resolution as to tli sufficiency of the Constitution as it is, but the . fact that the proposition for a convention was fa t .red by a portion of the Republicans of the Leg islature is an indication that a conservative senti mant is the jober second thought of the people. B)IM anV, assstsSJaM at s1 ' ... , . , ... We pubiMh this morning a correct report of the , . j r r, . a . remarks of Mr. Dot u las, in the Senate on the 6th inst, on the inaugural address of Mr. Lijicol.. We commend than to the reader as being very opportune in connection with the dying rumors of tli nii(ii intantirtns nf ths new Atlministra , . J" a tion. Mr. Douglas s sagacitv foreshadows the mm , . , . . . i pohev which Mr. Lincoln wdl pursue toward the i. - - mm , . . seceding States from the necessities which aurround him He finds the head ot a Government , to be a far different position from the Chief of a party, and b is not the first man who has discovered the difference. A Catholic View. In another column will be found an article from the Fremsa Journal and Catholic Register, a leading, and one of the ablast organs of that de nomination, expressing, undoubtedly, the Catholic sentiment upon the inaugural address of Mr. Lin col.". In the present posture of political affairs, the views of the Frtnmmn't Journal have significance, and will, therefore, be read with interest. That paper was at onetime the special organ of Archbishop Hughe of New York, and it is supnow to have his confidence, and to represent his Careless Legislation. A leading Republican Senator informs us that the legislation of the Republican Legislature was slip-shod throughout, and that the enrolliag of the laws exhibits the most gross and inexcusable c trelessneas. He thought an extra session of the Legislature almost necessary to revise man;, of the laws that were enacted, so as to make them intelligible and carrv out the intent of the framers. ' t, - .- . - mm. . D. - ' I It is evident that the Kepubhcan part v is com1 1 posed of materials illy calculated to govern, but admirably constituted to oppose. We miss a guess amazingly if thev do not find themselves , . - - . . . . m. ! soon m that posiüon. In fact the administrativ part of the organization came from the Democratic party, but even there is not leaven enough in it to save it from destruction. The Inlellif enrer on lac Territorial Im st ion. The Washington InteUiprmeer argues that the organization of Colorado, Nevada and Dacotah Territories was effected by Congress upon princi pies which if carried out, would lead to thespeedy and hsrmonions settlement of our National difficulties. Cincinnati Gazette. These Territories were organized upon the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty, or non-intervention by Congress with the question of slavery no allusion having been made in the Territorial bills a to the principle nf protecting or prohibiting slavery. Thus a Republican Congress has practically acknowledged the principle laid down in tlie Cincinnati platform upon that issue and which was advocated by Mr. Dot glas and his friends as the true solution ot" tii.a d.stracuig issne between the North and tlie South. The Lefialatare Aajaurned. The General Assembly adjourned $ie die jesterday noon. Never beiora since the organization of the State has a Legislature assembled more illiberal and inten.-ely partisan. From beginning to end the majority acted as though they had but a brief hold upon the spoils of power and therefore they were determined to make the most of it. Every measure adopted was made subsidiary, as far as passible, to the advancement of party interests. That was the leading idea in all t ie legislation of the session. We favor a most rigid scrutiny into all matter connected with the administration of the Government, but such investigations should be fair and impartial and with a single reference to the promotion of the public interests. Such has not been the character of the investigations into the conduct of public officials, by the legislative com mittaes during the session, nor will it be of those appointed to sit in vacation. If any citizen, who has held or now holds official position, is deserving of censure for the manner in which he has discharged his trust, it should not be withheld; neither should he be condemned upon ex parte and ;, without an opportunity of exdefence. The " retrenchment and reform " party will sadly disappoint the people of the State. While a few abuses have been cor rected, others have been continued, and the door opened wide for new enterprises in that regard. Even the embezzlement law was so framed that it would become a nullit v whenever its constitutionality should be teat ad. The intention of the law was good, but the attempt to enforce it literally, even if it was constitutional, would show its impracticability. The despotic military bill, with its costly provisions, and the iniquitous apportionment bills were defeated by the firmness of the Democratic members anc fcr which good work they will have the approval of the people generally and tbair constituents especially. We presume Governor Mobton will make the failure of these bills an excuse for the calling of an extra session of the Legislature. It is already intimate 1 that such will be the case. We shall refer to the action of the Legislature, hereafter, in detail. A Bcftalo Hvxt. A large nuffalo which has been stabled during the winter in the south part of the city, waiting, we presume, for the grass to grow before his owner starts on an exhibiting tour, yesterday broke from his moorings and started in the direction of the Union Depot, bellowing to the best of his ability. As he crossed the common he attracted a herd of steers and cows and they kept at his heels bellowing also It was an exciting scene to see the herd in full chase, and as they ueared the depot the people fled in terror, tumbling over each other and bei lowing, some of them, almost as loud as the frolicksome cattle. After frightening the crowds around the depot, his baffaloship made direct for Washington street followed by his admiring train, and by this time his keeper with a choice band of hunters was in hot pursuit. On the crowded business street, when the herd tore along it, the scene can better be imagined than described. He was finally headed off, took to an alley and was captured. Revivals. Revivals of religion have been in eaieaa in many parts of the State and country during the present winter and hundreds of persons have connected themselves with the various churches. Among the places in this Slate where the spirit of revival has gained headway are Evansville, Princeton, Terre Haute, V,neennes. Fort WaviiC, Madtaon and oar own city. We believe the protracted meetings have closed in this city with two or three exceptions. M seringa are still held at Wesley Chapel (Methodist) a m night, with a good deal of interest and accaaa. Large congregations assemble nightly at the Christian Church, and a good work is being done Already about twenty have connected themselves with that church, and a number of baptiaans have been made. Quarterly meeting commenced at the United Brethren Church on Saturday, and the religious feeling there is in the ascendency. We understand from a member of one of the Method ist churches, that during this winter about twenty accessions have been made to the Ceti tenarv, forty to the Wesley Chapel, John Street tan, Roberts' Chapel twelve to fifteen. A num her of persons have joined the Um versalist church since their new building has been erected and id quite a large congregation attends held there. New Albany Ledger.

Legislative itmtnary. JfoxPAT, March 11, 161 Sex ate. Resolutions ware adopted of thanks to the officers of the Senate directing the Finance Committee to report a joint resolution restricting the officers of the Northern State Prison in letting the contracts for the same several in regard to the distribution of documents, and also resolutions expressive f the regrets of the Senate on the death of Ruf us Brown, late a Senator from Marshall and St. Joseph's, and of Isaac A. Rice, late a Senator from Fountain county. Several appropriate speeches were made un the occasion of the presentation of these resolutions. The use of the Chamber was allowed to the Baptist congregation, whose church was recently burnt, for worship, and the Librarian was directed to take up the carpet and preserve it until needed for the neat General Assembly. AfteT some other unimportant business, the President then addressed the Senate in a speech, which appears

in our reports, and pronounced the Senate adjoumed sine die Hoi-se Resolution of thinks to the Speaker and officers and the Reporters of the House were unanimously adopted. Several bills, among others the tish bill, and the bill regulating the practice of medicine and surgery in the State, were returned from committees recommendinT their pastas, t but of course tliev could not be acteJ on, and a large number were handed in with reports to the effect that the committee! hd not time to exam ine them The Committee on Agriculture re turned the memorial and charges of I. M. Ray against the State Board of Agriculture with a re- ...... port that Mr. Rav lvad eutireiy tailed to substautiate anv traud. Mr. Heffren made a minority on, reflecting upon the manner in which the investigation was had. Mr. Brantum, from the Committee on Wavs and Means and the Commit tee on Public Expenditures made a very lengthy report on the financial affairs of the State. Mr. Su'Lsenterg offered a joint resolution requesting Congress to call a National Convention. Mr. Bumly offered a substitute embracing the same object, which was passed by yeas ör. nays 1? Various resolutions were pissed in respect to the distribution of documents and 500 copies of Drapier 's Brevier Reports were ordered to ie bound for the use of members, when, at 11 o'clock, A. M., the Speaker declared the House adjourned tine die. DrrTHEEiA a Old Visitor in New England The throat disease now known as diptheria is an old disease with a new iinnic. The word is from a Greek word iniifviii; skin, and should be wiled diphtheria, and not, as it usually is, diptheria. This disease visited this country as long ago as 1T.'7, and raged with great violence. We find, says the Portland Trantcript, in Parson SmWt Journal n,.lW notic, of its tmm in this region. I'nder date of October 31 , 17.17, he says a fast was held on account of this throat distemper. It was epidemic; and commencing at Kingston, Xew Hampshire, spread through New Hampshire and M i ichusetts, and was two years in reaching the Hudson River. In N ew Hamp shire not less than one thousand persons fell victims to this malignant distemper, and in Boston , , . i i i i - . four thousand persons had the disease, and one hundred and fourteen died. In May. 1737, Par son Smith mentions that seventy live had died of n this town. Under date of October 13, 17 j7, he savs: "The distemper is still bad at Scar- - , vot ftnP h.i ivßd thmi has had it of late." It was the most fatal scourge that ever vi.-dted New England, and rapidly hurried its subjects to the grave; the throat swelled, became covered with ash colored specks, greit debility and prostration ensued, with putrefaction. Under the improved methods of treatment of the present dav. it is less fatal. The "Freeman's Journal" on President Lincoln's .TIeafre. From the Xcw Tork Freeman's Journal. THE IXAUGI'KAL AND ITS CONCOMITANTS. On Monday last, the melancholy spectacle was presented of the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln to the office of nominal President of the United States. The city of Washington was crowded on the occasion bv tens of thousands of excited men comparatively fca- of whom seem It understand the blow the country lias received. 1 he closing days ot last week accumulated the gloom that has settled over the minds of patriotic men. The "Peice Convention" called at the instance of generous Virginia, adjourned, having been able to present nothing better for the con sideration of the country than the "plan' which we give in another column. We are unable to understand the motives that patriotic men in Washington found for the "joy and congratulation" with which the results of that Convention were hailed. On the contrary, it seemed to us that the seventh article, tacked to the rest by the rabid influences of the "Massachusetbi School,'' and claiming that amalgamationists in New England, by investing black men with State citizen ship, m iy thrust them upon Southern States in like capacity showed the chaffering and pettifogging disposition, unabated, to keep the word of the Constitution to the ear, and to break it to tiie hope. But even this poor dole was not freely paid. The propositions of the Convention were not sanctioned by the unanimous agreement that alone could have given them weight. On the contrary, they seem to have passed by a majority vote onlv iu consequence of a characterise of insolence on the pirt ofthat loose joiuteJ poli- j tician, Dudley D. Field, who held the balance vote of the ew York delegation. Tuedelegation containel five conservatives and six radicals, , and were under instructions to cast the vote of the State on ev ery question as it rose, according.to the majority will in the delegation. Mr. D. D. Field, having sought and acceptei a place in the delegation as a radical, was afterwards led off, by a fee, to attend court during the decisive sanol) of the Convention, and modestly left his injunc tion. to supply the place of his presence and vote. rheöe injunctions receiving only the weight to which they were entitled, the delegation of New York was divided and nonliquet. And, still farther, these poor propositions of the Peace Convention have been rejected by both Houses of the Kump" Congress. The Critlen den propositions h i v. , - n rejectee, and the expiring Congress, only by the nust strenuous exertions, succeeded in pasaiug Tom Corwin's propositions, assei ting the inviolability of State sovereignty in regard to the slavehohhng States, and recommending a convention of all the States. The course of Senator Seward, on the vote upon the Peace Convention propositions, added to the genera! gloom. Confidence had been felt in him, by many, that he was going to declare for a conservative course. His vote against these proposi tions, in the Senate, revealed the truth that he i but a trimmer, and will live and die such. He floated off with the radicjis. On Monday of this week came the ihnuguration, with its customary speech. It is the fictitious importance attache 1 to the language of inaugurals that will do the damage. We present the docu ment, as it was read, in our column:-. Earnest, narrow and bigoted, the language of the inaugural is the language of the miserable and anti-national party that elected Mr. Lincoln. The natural meaning of his words is. that he makes no note of the disruption of fundamental relations that he des not recognize that force, used by him in the bounds of the seceding States, will nuke of the people of those State3 a foreign nation, even as in their heit of passion, their revolutionary conventions have declared they already consider themselves. The inaugural will be read to mean that Abraham Lincoln proposes to retake the forts and other United States property iu the se ceding States, and to collect the revenue in their ports. Still, let us say, we do not believe he will attempt the one or the other. If he does attempt it, in fact, he will force every slaveholding State to unite with the Southern Confederacy, and he will bring a united South into armed collision with a divided, convulsed and self-resisting North. If force be used in an attempt to recapture United States forts new held by seceding States, we predict that, before snow falls next winter, a Southern army wilt hold the city of Washington, and, if there be civil war, it will be carried on upon Northern soil. This is no menace, it is foresight. In God's name let it be prevented. There is but one course now lett, short ..f mid ness and misery for all of us. The laws M the seceding States are in abeyance. Let them so remain, for the present No oath of office calls Mr. Lincoln to attempt what is impossible, which he acknowledges it to be to execute American law within resisting States. The remedy for this fundamental disorder is bevond the reach of the Administration or of Congress. The only way now is to postpone ac tion, and to summon a National Convention of all the Suites either to heal breaches, or to agree on a peaceable separation. Is uot thai the American way ? Ia it not the only way compatible with the principles ot our institutions t is there anything derogatory of any one's dignity, ur of any one's interest in this proposition t Let, then, all that there is of patriotism or of common sense left in the Republican party, strive to keep Mr. Loaeohl confined to carrying out this sole remaining ; lan As to the border slave Suites they are entitled to the affection, to the gratitude, and to the practical friendship of all patriots for the conservative course they have taken hitherto. In presence of Mr. Lincoln's attitude in his inaugural, we feel that it may be impossible for them longer to preserve their conservative position. Hut their exertions have not been in vain. Tnei have strengthened the hands of conservative t the North, and have coutirnu i M in our dtVü - iniuatiou that ire will not make was on the South, even if we have to tight ortheru aggression at j our own doors to Keep irom oeing uraggeu into so unholy a conflict of sections.

"O Ci It I OX A I . Wamusotos, Monday, March 11. SENATE. The Senate resumed the consideration of Mr. Foster's resolution for the expulsion of Senator Wigfall, and Clingman's substi tute. Mr. Foster had offered the resolution neither as a party or personal question, but had acted in ac cordance with his duty, considering the avowal of the Senator. He differed altogether with Mr. Clingman, that a State has the right under the Constitution to go cut of the Union. Mr. Foster said the Senate owed it to itself not to allow a seat here to one who avowed he w;i a foreigner, and owed no allegiance to the country to which he belonged, but to a foreign Government ; and if that Government happened to take up arms against this Government, and seize its property, and expels from its territory by force the troops of the United Slates, it became a very serious objection, and it was inconsistent to allow any one so circumstanced to hold a e it here. He had no personal feeling in the matter. Mr. Foster then argued against Mr. Clingman's substitute, which admits the right of secession, but no such thing was known to the Constitution, which was too plain on this point to argue, or admit of a doubt. He held that the Senator was entitled to a seat on sound constitutional ground, whether Texas seceded or not. That State, by withdrawing from the Union, could not withdraw him from that body. Mr. Clingman replied, that if the accounts were true Texas had called a Convention and passed an ordinance of secession, which had been ratified by the people, and if the act was voted, '1 exas was no longer one of the State-, and he tjok it for granted, if Texas seceded she is not entitled to a representation here, 'i'he Senator from Texas believes his State has seceded. The Senator from Connecticut says the act ot seres siou is invalid. Thtn the Senator from Texas is entitled to a seat, unless an erroneous opinion disqualifies him. Was it ever maintained that because one Senator differed from another on a constitutional question that that was a reason for expelling him? If it ia An error for the Senator from Texas to believe that his State has a right to secede, why not expel the Virginia Senators who held the same opinions, and especially why not those who declared it and have gone away '.' No nution is made to expel Jeff. Davis, who is at the he id of a foreign republic, and has advi-ed the seizure of arms and forts. He (Clingman) did not think the avowal of Wigfall a sufficient ground for his expulsion. He continued at some length arguing that the course of the Senator from Connecticut was not a proper one. Mr. Mason contended that the resolution was one of expulsion for what the Senator from Texas said on this floor; and he said if Mr. Foster thought that Mr. Wigfall ought not to occupy his seat because he was not a citizen, he ought to move to refer the subject to a committee, so that, if facts warrant, the seat is to be declared vacant. Mr. Foster asked whether, after the Senator from Texas had been duly elected by his State, and admitted as a member here, they could in quire into the legality by which he holds his seat, a new fact arising which did not exist at that time. Mr. Mason was very certain if the Senator was entitled to a seat it could be vacated whenever the fact warranting such a course it should bedis closed. He defended the course of Mr. Wigfall, and said if it be a puni. liable offense to allege a constitutional truth that the resolution may be well funded. For one he (Mason) recognized no allegiance to this government, none whatever, and here took his position alongside the Senator from Texas. He owed allegiance to Virginia and no one else. Did the Senator from Connecticut resist the doctrine of constitutional law nnd hold the Government of the United States sovereign'.' if he did God help him. Solar as the Senator from Texas has committed an offense by saying he owed allegiance to this Governments he stood by his side and should bo unfaithful to Virginia if he did not. Allegiance here is that which is due from one citizen to a sovereign power, and he knew no s jvereign except the State. He denied that the act of separation was a nullity, and said that only Virginia had denied it ; but six States denied such a doctrine and have formed a Government, and is prepared to sustain itself if attacked. Mr. Hunter considered the resolution as one of censure for the mere expression of opinion. The Senator frjra Texas hiving d ine nothing more (han declare his belief in secession, and continued at length, advocating State rights. The Senate went into executive session and then adjourned. Wasiuwtox, Tuesday, March H. SENATE. The Senate took up Foster's resolution for the expulsion of Wigfall, when on motion of Mr. Simmons it, together with Clingman's substitute, was referred to the Judiciary Committee. Mr. Trumbull, from the Judiciary Committee, to whom was referred Mr. Mason's resolution about Messrs. Carlton and Sanborn, reported back the resolution with a recommendation that it be postponed till the third Monday in December, which was agreed to. The committee deem it premature to order payment at this time. The Senate went into executive session and adjourned. tTASnisoTos, Wednesday. March 13. SENATE Mr. Douglas offered a resolution calling on the Secretary of War for information as to the forts in the seceding States; and, if it is necessary to reoccupy the same, what force will be necessnrv for the purpose, etc. MOWS. Wilson and Mason objecting, the reso lution lies over. Mr. Fassenden offered a resolution directing the Secretary of the Senate to strike from the roll of the Senate the naoMi of Senators from the seceding States, who have declared they are no longer members of the Senate. The Senate went into executive session, and af terward udjourned. Soulhern News. Mo.vtoomebv, Ai.a., Monday, March 11. A permanent constitution has been adopted, but is kept secret.

The Georgia State Convention has transferred the forts, arsenal, arms and munitions of war, to the Government of the Confederate States. An ordinance has also been passed appropriating half a million dollars for the support of the Government, and authorizing the Governor to issue 7 per cent. Iionds for that amount. The report of the seizure of the Northern stock in the Macon and Western Railroad is denied. The President of the road Isaac Scott, Esq., says there is no foundation for the report. Galvettos, Tf ,-. Monday, March 11. Gov. Houston refuses to recognize the Con vention, and considers that its functions termin ated in submitting the secession ordinance to the people. He tells the Convention that he ami the Legislature, which meets on the lt!th, will attend to the public questions now arising. He favors a new Convention to make such changes in the State Constitution as are necessary. He is op posed to Texas joining the confederacy.

The Convention iu reply passed an ordinance claiming full powers and promising to consnro. mate the connection of Texas with the Confederate States and notify the State of this course. The Convention will require all officers to take an oath of allegiance to the new Government, and to carry out the Convention ordinances. It is said Mr. Clarke will be put in Mr. Houston's place if the latter refuses to take the oath. It is also reported that Governor Houston is rais ing troops on his own account. Fifteen hundred Texan troops are at or near Brownsville. Biiazob, Wednesday, March 8. Arrangements are made for the Federal troops to leave as soon as transportation is provided.

The steamer Davrl Webster was outside of Brazos to transport federal troops to the North. It was reported that 1 ,500 Texans were stationed on the Rio Grande, and reinforcements were still arriving. The collector of the district of Brazos had resigned, and resumed his duties under the authority of Texas. C'oi. Ford was at Brownsville. Gen. McLeod was in command at Brazos, and Gen. NichoIU at Point Island. Rai Tim ore, Tuesday, March B. The State Conference assembled again to-day; attendance small. The Chairman said he understood Governor Hicks was still unwilling to call a Convention, and it was evident that the sentiments of the members were somewhat modified. It is thought a committee will be appointed to confer v it h the Virginia Convention. Adjourned till to morrow. K.tSHvii.i.E, Monday, March 11. Hon. John Bell has arrived here, and his views of the inaugural, with his advice to Tennessee, ay telegraphically ascribed to him from Washington, is authoritatively contradicted.

From New York. Xrw York, Monda.r, March 11. Advices rrom Montevideo state that the ship Flying Eagle of Boston, from New York, bound to San Francisco, arrived on the 4th inst , to repair damages, having sprung her bowsprit in a gale of wind. She will receive a new one. The bark Wortricit of New Oilcans, recently arrived from Cadiz with a cargo of salt, struck on a reef on the 4th inst., in the harbor, and soon became a total wreck. The whole cargo was also lost. The steamer Johnson sailed, with a cargo of cannon, provisions, etc. A schooner is loading for Fort JeTerson, at Governor's Island. From Watli ington. Washixotos, Monday, March 11. The Criminal Court to day discharged Wni. H. Russell, who was indicted in connection with the abstraction of Indian trust bonds. The judicial course was in accordance with the law of 1S57 . which exempts witnesses before investigating committees from trial, Mr. Russell having appeared as such before that of the House on the subject of those londs. Ex-Secretary Floyd to-day gave $10,000 security for his apiHJirance at court. An official dispatch was read from Montgomery this morning, instructing Messrs. Crawford and Forsyth to at once enter upon the business of negotiating with the Administration, without waiting for the other Commissioner. An official letter from Major Anderson, which arrived on Saturday, says he had only fifteen days subsistence and wood. The question has, therefore, arisen with the Administration whether reinforcements be attempted or the fort abandoned. The latter course, it is thought, will be adopted from inevitable necessity, bv advice of Lieutenant General Scott. There is. however, a conflict of opinion between Republicans on this question, but no conclusion was arrived at in Cabinet council to-day. The Cumberland and Pocahontas have, according tt official advices, left Vera Cruz for Norfolk, and the Powhattan is on her way to New York. The Macedonian is the cnlv vessel left at Vera Cruz. The National Intelligencer of to-day contains a long article recommending the relinquishment of Forts Sumter and Pickens as an act of conciliation, and says that the new Administration raijrht, by moving first in the direction of conciliation, do infinitely more to consolidate its power than by passively awaiting the progress of events. A Cabinet meeting was held at half-past twelve o'clock to-day to take into consideration the proposed evacuation of Fort Sumter. Archibald Campbell, editor of the Wheeling Intelligencer, has been nominated for Postmaster of that place. Reports prevail of the contemplated evacuation of Fort Sumpter, but up to eight o'clock to-night the President had given no order for that purIKise gentlemen of prominence, however, say they have information which satisfies them that such a course, from necessity, will be pursued. The Commissioners from the Confederated States did not see the Secretary of State, but will probably make a formal application for an interview to-morrow. The Senate has confirmed R. J. Payne, as District Attorney, for the Northern District of Ohio. The President sent in the nominations, which were referred, of J. Z. Goodrich, Collector of Baotoaj 0 QPtgO McClelland Second Assistant Posmaster General; Archibald Williams, District .' ihL'c ol Kansas, and Dale of Illinois, Secretary of Indian Affairs. WasntxoTox, Tuesday, March 12. It is known that the intention of the President is to first till the vacancies which exist, and which must be tilled, during the present session of the Senate. Excepting in a few instances other appointments will be deferred until this is done. In the meantime applicants are required to file their papers in the proper department. The ulhcers of the Army met at the War Department at noon to-day. and in company with Lieutenant General Scott nnd Secretary Cameron, proceeded to the White house, and formally paid their respects to the President. The President to day nominated to the Senate I'assnis M. Clav as Minister to Spain, and Thomas Corwin, Minister to Mexico. The latter is considered the most important mission under the Government at this time considering the territ irlal extension question as connected with the Confederate States. The I're-ident to dav nominated Amos Tuck Naval Officer at Boston. Willard Phillips Collector at Salem, Massachusetts, Rufus Hosiner Consul at Frank io : on the Main, Archibald Williams as District Judge of Kansas, and Wm. P. Dale Commissioner of Indian Affairs, and ware confirmed by the Senate to-day. Other nominations were referred. Inquiry at proper quarters warrant the assertion that no order has yet been issued in reference to the evacuation of Fort Sumter At Secretary Chase's re;pie-t George Hairing t m. Chiei Vierk of the Treasury Department un der Corwin, to day attends temporarily on the discharge of duties as Assistant Secretary. Redman has returned to his former position at Chief Clerk. George E. Baker, of Albany, is appointed Disbursing Clerk in the Slate Department. The municipal authorities to-day presented Mr Crittenden a copy of a joint resolution of re-pect adopted bv the City Councils. In acknowledging the honor he said he should retire from public life with full confidence that the nation tvould soon come nut of its struggle, and be able to look with joy npoil dangers which had cenientel them more firmly together. The Armstrong court martial was organized to day. Com. Stewart. President. Washinutok, Wednesday. March 13. Gentlemen in Government pooWoM) confidently assert that Fort Sumter will be abandoned in consequence of the percmpti ry opinion of Scott; some say it will be done next Monday, this information, how ever, is not official. The report prevails that Crittenden is almost certain to be nominated to the Supreme Bench. What the Southern Congre have done so far, has been inform il in the direction of peace. Senator Latham has succeeded in getting a weekly mail service from San Francisco to Los Ange'os, with weekly service to Sin Diego. A contract was also closed for the removal ot the Butterfield to the Central route, with service from St. Louis to Placerville California irr six teen days, Sundays included; also, a Pony Express three times a week for eight years, service to commence the 15th of Juue.

Vahneton Correspondence. New York, Monday, March 11. The Htrald't Washington correspondence states that political circles were feverishly excited Sunday by the report that the evacuation of forts Sumter and Pickens were determined upon in the Cabinet council Saturday night It is nowcertain that the stock af provisions is almost exhausted. Several Republican Senators have repeatedly declared that such policy was decided upon, while the leading Southern Democrats cal it a master stroke of policy. The leading appointments for New York are said to be decided upon. Hiram Barney is said to be Collector; Wakemaii, Surveyor; Webb, Naval; Hoxey, Postmaster, and Nye, Marshal. Delaficld Smith, it is said, stands a fair chance to be appointed District Attorney. The Times' correspondence says I heard distinguished Secessionists confess to night that if Mr. Lincoln does withdraw the troops from Fort Sumter secession is dead, and every leader in the movement ruined. George G. Fogr, late Secretary of i he National C DO Republican Committee, has been tendered the position of Commissioner of Patents. Illinuisianss.lv Mr. Lincoln's intimate friend, Col. Lamon, is certain to be Marshal of this District. Hon. Eli Thayer is urged to accept the Gov eruorship of New Mexico. John D. Defrees, of Indiana, will probably be Superintendent of the Public Printing Office in this city. Secretary Welles contemplates disposing of the i atronage of bit department at tin early day. The Michigan delegation have agreed to recommend the following appointments in that State: N. G. Debel, of Livington, for Collector of Detroit; Hon. W. A. Howard, Po-tniaster ot Detroit; Hon. D. C. Leach, Indian Agent; Col. Dickey , of Calhoun, Marshal ; Mr. Stoughton, of St. Joseph, for District Attorney. Ben. McCullough and his followers are organizing for a descent upon the northern provinces Of New Mexico with the expectation of uniting them to Texas by conquest and setting up an in dependent Government to be detached from the Cotton Confederacy. This scheme has been planned for some time. An animated contest occurred esterday over the District Attorneyship for Northern Ohio. Robert Paine, of Cleveland, was finally accepted through the decided influence of Senator Wade. Mr. Ballard will be Collector, and Mr. Coles Postmaster of the same place Advices from Montgomery mnounce that the Constitu:ion of the New Confederacy has been ordered to be engrossed. It is extremely conservative Five millions of the loan have been taken at par, and no doubt the remainder will be taken at the same figure. Washington t'orrrftpondrnce. New York. Wednesday, March 13. World' Corrrspi'iidence. The question of the nomination of Mr. Crittenden to till the vacancy in the Supreme Court is at last settled, by a vote in the Cabinet, that it shall not be made. Col. Ellsworth has been appointed a Lieutenant in the Army. The late Adjutant to Gen. Cooper, at the reimest of Jeff. Davis, has gone to Montgomery, with the evident view to re.-ume the same position. The Herald's correspondence, in reply to dis patches putting the authorities on their guard, says Gen. Bearergard telegraphed here to-day as follows: " We are prepared at all points, and defy them re enforce Fort Sumter." Senator Trumbull is severely denounced by Illinois Republicans for urging his brother-iu-law's appointment as Governor ot Dacotah. The nomination of James Speed as Postmaster at Louisville gives a good deal of satisfaction. The friends of B. Gallagher are especially chagrined. D. G. Rose w ill be appointed I'nited States Marshal in Indiana. John L. Scripps is appointed Postmaster at Chicago; G G. Jones, Postmaster at Terre Haute; J. M. Stockton, Postmaster at Maysville, and John Corwin, Postmaster at Hamilton, Ohio. James Tviier, a Stute Elector, lias been appointed a special mail agent for Indiuna. Secretary Cameron will retain the present Chief Clerk, Mr. Poth, for the present. To day, Mr. H. M. Cobb, of Tioga, Pa., was appointed Disbursing Clerk of the War Department. The Times' correspondence says that Secretary Cameron is understood to favor the policy of collecting the revenues outside of the ports, after Secretary Chase shall have drawn requisitions upon the officers of the seceding States and they have refused to comply. The French Minister called upon Mr. Seward at the State Department to-day. and tendered the good services of his Government to mediate between the United States and Peru, relative to the difficulties growing out of the seizure of the ships Lizzie Thompson and Grorgiana. Mr. Sew ard received the otter cordially, but of course did not commit himself on the subject. All arbitra tion on this case was rejected by the late Administration. The Court in the Com. Armstrong court mar tial ca-e was organized this morning, Com. Stewart officiating as President, Coins. Shubrick, QfOftiMjr, fUringhana. Mervin. Paulding. Cool F. liictzc, McCleary, Jitrvis, and Capts. Hull and Nicholson constitute the court. Col. A. B. Magruder is Judge Advocate and Phillip Phillips counsel for the defense. (Tribune Correspondence. The nomination of Mr. -Corwin as minister to Mexico was quite unexpected to him, and was not desired. It is only three days since he urged upon the President the selection of another person as peculiarly fitted for this post. Mr. Lincoln nominated him without any conference whatever, and was influenced mainly by the desire to secure his services in carrying out the policy which Mr. Corwin has advocated in and out of Congress as most desirable for our future commercial, political and diplomatic relations with that republic. If he consents to accept that mission at all, which is yet undetermined.it will be for the purpose of inducing Mexico to adopt this policy and for no other reason. In this view the mission is now among the most important in the whole service. The agents of JetTerson Davis are there endeavoring to obtain recognition.

Virftiniu. ('nvrnt i on . KicmoM), V a., Monday, March 11. The convention returned thanks to Critterden for his patriotic efforts to bring about an honora ble adjustment of the difficulties. Mr Baldwin made a minority report from the Committee on Federal Relations in favor of a border State convention at Frankfort, and opposing coercion charging the present condition of the country on politicians. 1 he majority report recommends the people of her sister States to respond at their earliest convenience to its position and amendment to the Constitution, to be proposed hereafter, in case Virginia fails to obtain satisfactory responses from slat ehohling States. She feels implied tore sinne sovereign jniwers, and throw herself on her reserved rights. It is made an indispensable condition that a pacific policy be adopted towanls the seceded States ; that no attempt be nude to reinforce or recapture the forts or exact payment of imports upon commerce or any measure cl culated to provoke hostilities ; that Virginia will regard any hostile action by either side as huitful and unfriendly, and as leaving Virginia free to determine her future policy. The report recommends a Conference of the Bonier States at Frankfort, Ky., on the last Monday in May. The 'foregoing will probably not fully meet the anoroval of the Union members, because it ap parently recognizes the legal right of secession. 1 he majority report re affirms tne doctrine 01 State- rights, and declares interference with slav ery by the federal authorities, or the people, contrary to the Constitution, offensive and dan gerous; condemns the formation of geographical Of -C'-tional parties demands a fair partition of the territory, and equal protection therein; de clares it is unwise, impolitic and offensive to ac cumulate within the limits of a State interested in the irritated jiending question of the dee; est importance, an unusual number of troops and munitions of war; indulges in the hope of a reto ration of the Union, and fraternal feelings; recommends the repeil of unfriendly and uncoii-ti tutional legislation, and the adoption of proper amendments to the Constitution; concedes the right of States to withdraw for just causes; alludes to the position of the Federal Government dis claiming the power under the Constitution to re cognize withdraw al without expressing au opinion on the question of power it deserves to confer upon the Government, power necessary to deil peaceably with the question involved; if neces sary to recognize the separate independence of seceding States, make treaties and pass such laws us separation may make proer. : - V a. .Tuesday. March 17. In the convention, to day, Mr. Sumner made a strong speech of three hours, advocating pence propositions, and urging such action as would meet the views of the whole State. He showed the folly of passing a secession ordinance for reference to the people, as it would divide them. He said that Virginia ought to first command peace on all sides, then call a liorder State conference, with peace propositions as a basis of adjustment, and then the convention to adjourn over to await the result. He expressed full confidence of eventual restoration. Mr. Tyler replies to-morrow. RirnMOM, Wednesday. March 13 Mr. Summers' speech in the Convention was the ablest of the season, and produced profound effect. Unionists consider his arguments unanswerable. There is but little doubt that the Border State Conference proposition will lc adopted, but that the ace propositions will be taken as a basis of adjustment, is doubtful. BOOM OOSOOlieoioti admit the impossibility of adopting an ordinance of secession, but say that Viiginia will ultimately secede unless her demands are granted.

The following are among the distressing variety of boman disca.-c- in which the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDICINES mW WKIJ. KSOWN TO CK INTAlJ-IBLK. DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the first and second stomachs, and creating a flow of pure, healthy bile instead of ihe stale and acrid kind; Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, Heartburn, Headache, Restlessness, Ill-temper Anxiety, Langor and Melancholy, which are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will vanish as a natural consequence of it cure. COSTIVEXEMS, by cleansing the hole length of the int'-stuies with a solvent process, and without violence; all violent purges leave the bowels costive within two Papa. h'EVEKS ot all kind.-, by rest oring the blood tu a regular circulation through the process of perspiration in such cases and the thorough solution of all intestinal obstruction In others. The Life Medicines have been known to cure Rheumatism permanently in three weeks, and Gout in half that tims, by removing local inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of the joints. DROPSIES of all kinds by freeing and strengthening the kidneys and bladder; they operate most delightfully on these important organs, and hence have ever been found a certain remedy for the worst cases of Gravel. Also, WORMS, by dislodging from the turning of the bowels the slimy matter to which these creatures adhere. SCUKVY, ULCEUS and 1XVETKRATK SORES, by the perfect purity which these Life Medicines give the bloo and all the humors. SCOKltlTtC ERrrnOSS and bad complexion, by the alternate effect upon the fluid that feed the kin, and tb morbid state of which occasions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and other disagreeable complexions. The use of these Pills for a very short time will effect an entire cure of Salt Rheum, and a striking improvement in the clearness of the skin. Common Colds and Influenza will always lie cured by one dos, or by two in the worst cases. PILES. The originator of these medicines was cured of Mm "f thirty-five years' standing, by the use of the Life Medicines alone. KEVER AND AGUE. For this scourge of the Western country, these medicines will be found a certain and safe remedy. Other medicines subject to a return of the disease a cure by these medicines is permanent.

The medicines have been used with the most beneficial results In cases o 1 this description; King's Evil and Scrofula iu its worst forms, yield to the mild yet powerful action of these remarkable remedies; Xigbl Sweats, Nervous Debility, Nervous Complaints of all kinds, Palpita tion of the Heart, Painter's Colic are speedily cured.

AN APKKIi.XT AXD STOMACHIC PREPARATIOX OF Iron, purified of Oxygen and Carbon by combustion of Hvdrogen sanctioned by the highest medicinal authorities, both in Europe and the Uni ed States, and prescribed in their practice. The experience of thousands daily proves that no preparation of Iron can be compared with it. Impurities of the blood, depression of vital energy, pale and otherwise sickly complexions indicate its necessity in almost every conceivable case. Innoxious in all maladies in which It has been tried, it has proved absolutely curative in each of the following complaints, viz: In Debility, Xerrmi Jfftction, Emaciatüm, Dyspepsia, ÜonstijHition, IHitrrhea, DyoeMtery, Incifiieut Gmsum4ion, Scrouloits Tul-trenioai., Salt Xfieum, JfismeimtriKition, WAites CMroi; Liter Comjjlaints, Clmmk Headaches, Rheumatism, Intermittent Ferers, Pimpit on the Face, tte. In cases of General Debility, whether the result of acute diseases or of the continued diminution of nervous and muscular energy from chronic complaints, one trial of this restorative has proved successful to an extent which no description or written attestation would render credible. Invalids so long bed-ridden as to have very nearly become entirely forgotten in their own neighborhoodshave suddenly re -appeared in the busy world, as ifjust returned from protracted travel in a distant land. Some very signal instances of this kind are attested of female sufferers, emaciated victims of apparent maramus, sanguineous exhaustion, critical changes, and their complication of nervous and dpeptic aversion to air and exercisas for which the physician has no name. In Nervous Affections of all kinds, and for reasons familiar to medical men, the operation of this preparation of iron must necessarily be salutary, for, unlike the old oxides, it is vigorously tonic, without being exciting or over-heating; and gently, regularly aperient, even In the most obstinate cases of cosüveness, without ever being a gastric purpative, or inflicting a disagreeable sensation. It is this latter property, among others, which makes it so remarkably effectual and permanent a remedy f"r Iiles up.ui which it also appears to exert a distinct and specific action, by dispersing the local tendency which forms them. In Dyspepsia, innumerable as are its causes, a single box of these Chalybeate Pills has often sufficed for the most habitual cae-, including the attendant costiveness. In Unchecked Diarrhea, even when advanced to Dysentary, confirmed, emaciating, and apparently malignant, the effects have been equally decisive and astonishing. In the local pains, lov.-of flesh and strength, debilitating cough, and remittent hectic, which generally indicates Incipient consumption, this remedy has allayed the alarm of friends and physicians in several very gratifying and interesting instances. In Scrofulous Tuberculosis, this medicated Iron has had far more than the good effect of the most cautiously balanced preparation of Iodine, without any of their wellknown liabilities. The attention of females can not be too confidently invited to th remedy and restorative, in the case peculiarly affecting- them. In Rheumatism, both chronic and inflammatory in the latter, however, more decidedly it has been invariably well reported, both a- alleviating pain and reducing the swellings and stiffness of the Joints and muscles. In Intermittent Fevers it must necessarily be a great remedy and energetic restorative, and its progress in the new settlements of the West, will probably be one of high renown and usefulness. Xo remedy has ever been discovered in the whole history of medicine, which exeits such prompt, happy and fully restorative effects. Good appetite, complete digestion, rapid acquisition of strength, with an unusual disposition for active and cheerful exercise, immediately follows its use.
